Description of the Soya Bean Extracting Machine Evaluation of the System The extracting machine consists of the following basic units; The constructed soya bean oil extractor was tested to evaluate feeding unit (hopper), pressing mechanism, driving its performance in the extraction process.
How is soybean oil extracted?
Two common soybean oil production processes are solvent extraction (chemical) and mechanical extraction using a screw press. The most conventional method is to extract oil by mechanical oil processing machines. The oil obtained from screw press, known as crude oil, usually undergoes a filtration process before being consumed as food.
Why is automatic soybean oil processing plant necessary?
Automatic soybean oil processing plant is necessary because of the low efficiency of the oil extracted by hand operated machines.
What is the isometric view of the soya bean oil extracting machine?
Isometric View of the Soya Bean Oil Extracting Machine PE = Power required to extract oil, W, ωD = Angular velocity of drum = 150.72 rad/s, TS =Torque of drum in relation with the shear stress of soya beans, Nm, DD = Diameter of drum =0.076 m τ = Shear stress of = 88480 N/m2 (determined experimentally).
